19. The 1900 Story (1998)
A baby, deserted on the ocean-going ship a fictional ship, matures to be a talented keyboardist (the lead actor) who refuses to leave the vessel. The highlight of this filmmaker's whimsical hokum is the protagonist fighting a musical showdown with a historical figure, somewhat unjustly depicted as a overconfident individual.
18. Aquatic World (1995)
Kevin Costner plays a samurai-like drifter with webbed feet and a modified watercraft in this megabudget science fiction adventure, located in a future where disappearing glaciers have inundated the planet. Everyone is searching for mythical Dryland while fighting off Dennis Hopper and his gang of continuously smoking pirates.
17. RMS Titanic (1997)
A significant portion of romantic interludes between a posh chick (Kate Winslet) and an free-spirited artist (the actor) are rescued by James Cameron's spectacular recreation of a famous most infamous disasters.

16. Ship of Fools (1965)
Working-class people, Spanish performers and German ideologists mingle on a ocean liner sailing from North America to the Old World in 1933. This filmmaker's large-scale film stars a cinema icon, in her last performance, as a melancholy character, but it's Oskar Werner, as the medical officer, and a talented performer, as a political noblewoman, who supply the movie with its emotional wallop.
15. Final Journey (1960)
The central vessel is destroyed in an blast and the lead actor's wife (the co-star) is stranded in their quarters in this compelling proto-disaster pic. Will the main character and a heroic engineer (the supporting player) save her before the boat submerges? Interesting note: the fictional ship is embodied by the legendary French liner a real ship.
14. Murder on the Nile (1978)
Bette Davis are including the homicide possibilities on board a Egyptian riverboat in this ensemble cast Agatha Christie whodunit. The main star, as the Belgian sleuth, is unable to halt several passengers being stabbed, which reduces his potential killers to a manageable number. Much more enjoyable than the modern adaptation.
13. Ocean Stillness (1989)
Two lead actors act as a partners seeking to heal from the trauma of their child's passing by sailing their boat for a spin in the sea, where they save Billy Zane from a sinking schooner. Big mistake! Phillip Noyce's suspense film is essentially a horror film at on the ocean, but an exceptionally well-made one that made her famous.
12. Maggie's Tale (1954)
An British man, moving items for an American industrialist, is manipulated into hiring a dilapidated "Scottish vessel" in Alexander Mackendrick's brutal Ealing comedy in the unconventional tradition of his own Whisky Galore!. Of course, the vessel's UK commander and crew deceive the inexperienced passengers for a ride, in all senses of the expression.
11. Overwhelming Power (1974)
The director provides his suspense story a state-of-the-nation angle in this tension-filled tale of explosives placed on a commercial vessel, the SS Britannic. Red wire or blue wire? David Hemmings act as demolition specialists; another actor, as the cruise director, delivers a heartbreaking study in sadly funny despair.
10. Ocean Disaster (1972)
This film version of this writer's literary work is among the zenith of the era of disaster movies. The SS Poseidon is capsized by a tsunami, and it's up to the main protagonist to direct his flock through the upturned ship to safety. Shelley Winters is memorable as a shopkeeper's wife with a useful experience of competitive swimming.
9. All is Lost (2013)
The main star provides a late-career brilliant acting in solo performance as a individual struggling to stay alive in the specific sea after his personal boat, the main setting, is damaged in a collision with an errant cargo box. It's anxious enough to view, so one can only imagine how extremely demanding it must have been for the senior performer to shoot.
8. Captain Phillips (2013)
The main star provides excellent performance in one of his ordinary-person-in-extraordinary-circumstances roles, as the captain of an US merchant vessel commandeered by African raiders off the Horn of Africa. He's matched by a co-star ("Now I'm in charge"), making a remarkable first movie role as the pirate chief in this filmmaker's tense movie, based on actual incidents. Should the final sequence fails to move you, you're emotionally detached.
7. Three-Sided Figure (2009)
{Freak weather conditions|
